|SolHermDescription=My hermitage will be simple shelter, located in a wilderness area of the Cape Breton (Nova Scotia, Canada), on a private 100 acres wood land (own by my brother). There is a small house at the entrance of the land (close to the access road) that will be used for cooking and food storage, and my meditation shelter is located about 15 minutes walking from the entrance house, in a remote and silent area in the middle of the forest, free from any disturbance (no humans, no network, no internet, no road access or driveway). There is a nice stream of pure water just down the tepee that is drinkable. | |||
The shelter is a kind of tepee-like construction (see picture above) I have built myself, very simple, off grid, shingles on the roof, with a plate-form for sleeping and meditation, and a woodstove on which I can also do basic cooking. | |||
For the meals, I will go once a day to the entrance house to cook for lunch (I will eat the leftovers for diner). For breakfast, I will store food in my shelter so that I don’t have to go to the house. | |||
I will wash my body eather very simply in the river down the shelter (in summer or warm weather) or in the house (in winter time or cold weather). | |||
I have local Canadian Dharma friends, living closeby, that will help me with the food shopping. so that I don’t have to go to town. | |||
I consider getting in touch with my family in France (particularly with my parents that are getting old) once every week. I will use whatsapp through the internet in the house for that purpose. | |||
For my spiritual support or guidance, my main teacher also lives on the same land, in another shelter. So in case I need to clarify some experiences, I will be able to rely on him, because he went through the Four Visions of Tögal years ago after 10 years of solitary retreat in the woods. | |||
